The ways in which people can learn are changing with new opportunities to learn at a distance, to learn as part of global community and to learn using new technologies. Open and free educational resources are an important component in this expanded world of learning and major initiatives are now underway to provide such resources.

This conference recognises the research challenge alongside the business challenge of providing, using and sustaining free and open resources and invites contributions and participation from those who are interested in how to research open content and what the findings are from those working in this challenging area.

Cynthia Jimes, project manager of the iCommons iCurrculum project (and node admin of the educational node: OER Case Study Project) will be presenting the Free High School Science Textbook case study that has been created as part of the project, entitled: A case study framework for open content projects: Free High School Science Texts and the case for continuous learning
